Isomer type definitions:

Epimers: Diastereomers that differ in configuration at only ONE chiral centre (other than the anomeric carbon).

Anomers: Isomers that differ only at the anomeric carbon (C1 in aldoses, C2 in ketoses). They are a special type of epimer.

Functional isomers: Same molecular formula but different functional groups.

Homologous: Members of a homologous series — differ by –CH₂– unit.
